Best Echo Sets for Aalto
Best. Increases Aalto's Energy Regen and also increases the ATK of the next character that switches in after Aalto's Outro Skill. Great synergy with Impermanence Heron.
Solid mix for both Aero DMG and additional Energy Regen to reduce Ultimate downtime. Good alternate when you want some balance between damage and energy.
Aalto's Best Primary Echo
Impermanence Heron
Restores Aalto's Resonance Energy so he can cast his Ultimate more often and increases the next character's ATK/Damage, fitting his semi-support role.
Nightmare: Feilian Beringal
Good for raw damage when you need Aalto to deal more DMG. Use as a damage-focused main echo if you lack more supportive options; switch to a support main echo in endgame.

Best Teams for Aalto
Aalto Aero DMG Team
Team purpose: Buff Jiyan's Aero damage via Aalto's Outro Skill and Shorekeeper's buffs to maximize Qingloong Mode/Aero Resonance Liberation damage., Rotation Step 1: With Shorekeeper on-field, use her Basic Attacks and Skill to summon Butterflies and charge her Concerto/Resonance Liberation., Rotation Step 2: When Shorekeeper's Resonance Liberation is ready, activate it. Swap to Aalto once Concerto Energy is maxed., Rotation Step 3: Use Aalto's rotations to deal damage and charge Concerto Energy. Use his Resonance Liberation if available for extra damage., Rotation Step 4: Once Aalto has fully charged Concerto Energy, switch to Jiyan to grant him the Aero Damage buff., Rotation Step 5: Activate Jiyan's Resonance Liberation on-field and use Qingloong Mode with Aalto and Shorekeeper's buffs to deal high Aero damage., Rotation Step 6: After Jiyan's rotation, ensure Concerto Energy is maxed before switching Shorekeeper back in to detonate her Resonance Liberation field., Rotation Step 7: Repeat the cycle until the enemy is defeated.
Aero Erosion Team
Team purpose: Combine Aalto's Aero DMG amplification with Cartethyia's Erosion-scaling damage and Aero Rover's sub-DPS/support utility to maximize Erosion burst damage., Note on sets: Cartethyia — Windward Pilgrimage (5‑pc) [43111]; Aalto — Moonlit Clouds (5‑pc); Rover (Aero) — Windward Pilgrimage (5‑pc)., Important: Moonlit Clouds does not increase Cartethyia's damage directly (she doesn't scale off ATK), but is still recommended on Aalto for energy regen and the Impermanence Heron damage boost., Rotation Step 1: Start on Aero Rover; build Windstring stacks by doing two rotations of Cloud Burst Dance. Use Rover's Resonance Liberation when available to fill Concerto Gauge., Rotation Step 2: Cast Rover's transformed skill Unbound Flow and immediately switch to Aalto. Rover's Outro increases max Aero Erosion stacks (to 6)., Rotation Step 3: On Aalto, cast Resonance Liberation to increase ATK via his gate, then perform Mist Dashes to build Concerto Energy. Use his Echo/transform into Impermanence Heron when full., Rotation Step 4: After Aalto's initial Echo hits, switch immediately to Cartethyia to buff her damage; Cartethyia will benefit from Aalto's Outro Aero DMG amplification., Rotation Step 5: On Cartethyia, perform optimal combos to summon and absorb three Sword Shadows, then transform into Fleurdelys with Liberation when available and use Manifest rotations to group and damage enemies while building Conviction stacks., Rotation Step 6: Revert to Cartethyia to reapply Sword Shadows and Erosion stacks, then transform again (cost-free) and continue until 120 Conviction stacks are reached to cast a second Resonance Liberation for massive damage., Rotation Step 7: Use Cartethyia's Outro Skill to amplify teammates' Aero DMG and swap to Rover (Aero) to continue the loop. Repeat until enemies are defeated.
